Day of the Juvenile court. A number of women, friends and witnesses in the case were present. Authorities state the Thomp son girl has been in juvenile court before. The two girls are alleged to have Btolen money from purses left In booths at the Bonney Grill, near Gold H1U last Saturday, also to have stolen a coat from the cloak, room. Statements of the girls, made after their detention, show that they at tended a dance in this city, met wo men, "one 40 and the other 60", and went to the Gold Hill dance. The statement said they never saw the older man before, and knew the younger only by sight. They were unable to give their names. One of the men offered them whiskey, which they declined. Attendance at the Gold Hill dance was light, so the girls state they went to Bonney's Grill with two high school boys, one named "Virgil" and the other "Louis." . After remaining at Bonney's Grill until about two o'clock, the two lads drove them home. Pomona Grange Mrs. Gertrude Haak All the Grangers In the county are advised that Worthy State Master Ray W.

SlMarkStf wall St. Report The civil suit of Fred PnM against Louise Howard tor money allegedly I due for labor and for sums advanced, ! and for a tractor and threshing ma chine used in operation of a farm near the Midway highway on Bear creek, was under way in circuit court s before Judge James T. Brand of Cooal county today, j The suit involves a unique and rare point of law, 'that a promise of 1 marriage and living in family rela-1 tlonship under the same roof cannot be presumed, as an implied promise to pay." Charles W. Reames, attor ney for the defense, Informed the court : "As far as I can determine it is the first time a crse Involving these points .has been brought into the courts of Oreson." A broken promise of marriage is alleged by both litigants and each charges that a romance was mixed with agriculture unsuccessfully. Puhl, through Ills counsel. Prank T. Newman, said that he had acted as foreman of. the farm for 48 months at the "request" of the de fendant; that he purchased a tractor and threshing machine, at her re quest and that the defendant 'art fully evaded" the promise to' marry." Mrs. Howard, through her counsel, held that Puhl came to the farm at his own volition; that they "lived in family relationship beneath the same roof," and that repeated requests for Puhl to fulfill promises of marriage were "put off because of require ments In a previews divorce decree. Attorney . Reames informed the court that "family relationship does not imply immorality. The plaintiff and his son and the defendant and her children lived tinder the same roof there was nothing wrong." The defense counsel alleged that Mrs. Howard "bought clothes and to bacco and whenever they went to a show paid the way for plaintiff." Puhl purchased the "tractor and threshing machine without the re quest of the defendant and used this machinery in his' operations on other farms for hire," the defense charged. Mrs. Howard operated the farm "for 15 years without a tractor, threshing machine or foreman," waa another defense claim. It was also stated that Mrs. Howard did the cooking and housework and her share of the field work during busy periods. The defense further charged that Puhl had told others that he receiv ed no pay and expected none, and that the suit waa instigated, when Mrs. Howard married another. The amount involved in the action was approximately $5000. Puhl claims he advanced money on promissory notes, paid $1000 for the tractor end has 2400 due for farm labor. Bothe parties are well known and a number from the Midway highway district were in court aa witnesses and- spectators. The easels expected to take three days.
